Ben Holland Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 Honestly one of worst line ups I have ever seen at a major festival such as Coachella. People whinging about Adele, foos / Muse, Coldplay and they get that trio.....be thankful is all I can say. If Harris and LCD play glasto, it would be on other stage only I imagine. Guns n Roses must be asking for fortunes judging by the lack of big bands on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also what's not there that could make it infinitely better? They have one of the biggest name in dance, one of rocks biggest bands reuniting with their original line up and the reunion of one of the most exciting electronic/rock bands of the last 20 years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 I would take those three headlining the Pyramid instead without hesitation. It wouldn't be as big and obviously LCD couldn't really do it but it'd be something different at least. Also I think you'd have to have a grim taste in music to think that's a bad line up - line up meaning the whole bill rather than the names in the biggest font.

Ignore Sunday and there is some decent stuff but how someone can say you must have some grim taste is silly, that's why they book different acts and not just what one person wants. I feel it's not great but also not bad, helped out by GNR and the odd ramdom one like Rancid and Volbeat, that's my thoughts though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah and that's because you gave up listening to any new music or variety of music to do festival predicting full time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't disagree with LCDs booking mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's that he's alright money-wise but these shows are just so ridiculously lucrative that you'd be mad to turn it down. A few million dollars just for two Coachella shows after such a short time away is pretty good going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pitchfork hailed them as the second coming, which I think has trickled through to the collective consciousness. Their film probably helped with that too. As for the reformation, does anybody have that James Murphy quote to hand? I can't find it. I didn't get the impression from the film that he had completely convinced himself that it was a good idea.
